I do not recommend it, it started to creak at 29,000 km.

I do not recommend this belt. On my 2014 Tundra 1794 it only put 29,000 miles before it started making that horrible screeching noise. Replaced with a Dayco belt, the squeak was gone. I'm pretty sure Dayco is actually an OEM part.

Pros
  • beautiful thing
Cons
  • legacy model

Correct size and good quality

The belt looked good and ran smoothly. I drive a 2011 Toyota Tundra with a 4.6 liter V8 engine and this model fits perfectly. For everyone else with a 4.6 liter engine, the serpentine belt patterns for the 5.7 liter engine are the same as for the 4.6 liter engine. Now let's hope this belt lasts 6 years and 120,000 miles like my original belt!

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • There are cons

Worked great, didn't last long :( (Other related issues)

Good price, installed as needed, works great. No more annoying squeaks from the old belt. Less stars: upgraded, about 10 After driving a few miles, we heard a strange "popping" sound, a sort of piercing. We turned off the engine and noticed the edge of the belt came loose, about 18 inches long, about that wide as some i wanted to cut this piece and take it home i'm not sure if i installed it wrong maybe it overlapped the pup but don't think the belt could be older the packaging isn't the…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Minor issues

2008 Sequoia I Can, You Can Too! Good price! a good product!

Purchased for 2008 Toyota Sequoia 5.7L. DID do a lot of research and discussed Gates vs Gatorback and settled on Gates as I felt it felt more like OEM. I'm not mechanical, but I felt like spending $200 for a 30 minute job! I bought it and made it myself, if I can do it you can too. The PRICE is competitive and the product works as expected. No complaints and Amazon beats the prices compared to car dealerships. Plan ahead and buy it and make it yourself. recommend.

Pros
  • Heavy Duty Surface
Cons
  • Weight

Not correct. Check the chart. excellent belt

When I first installed it, it screamed and squeaked for the first 30 seconds until the fan kicked on. After a week of research, I found that many Tundra wearers have the same concerns about different belts. Then I searched online for a belt location chart. I wound it wrong on the tensioner. This makes the belt very difficult to put on, but it still goes on. I removed it and routed it properly around the power steering, then around the alternator, then back around the tensioner. Works great now.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • operating speed
